The baseball team won a thriller last night by coming back from deficits twice in the last inning to finally seal the deal in the bottom of the 9th with a 2-run double by Adam Passmore. They came back in the bottom of the 7th down 5 to 3 to tie on a one out, 2-run triple by Ben Hartl, and then after being down again 6 to 5 in the bottom of the 9th, Passmore came through with his heroics after 2 straight one out singles by Luke Flesner and Hartl. Hartl led the offense with 4 hits in 5 at bats to go with 2 by Rico Johnson, including a double. Blake Pettys got the win on the mound allowing only one run in the final 3 frames. Next up is the CS8 finale today in Jacksonville.

Would you please now rise for the Pledge of Allegiance!
